I bought an Omen 30L about six years ago with a GTX 1660 Super and later upgraded it to 64GB of DDR4 RAM using two 32GB sticks. I'm now looking for the best drop-in graphics card replacement. Would a newer card such as a 5060-class GPU or a Radeon 9060 XT make sense in this system, or would I be better off starting over with a new build using a Micro Center bundle?

A GeForce RTX 5060 or 5060 Ti could be a straightforward upgrade, assuming the Omen’s power supply, connectors, and available space can handle the specific model. Check those details before buying, since prebuilt systems can have tighter limits than standard builds.
A Radeon RX 9060 XT with 16GB of VRAM is another strong option, especially for newer games that benefit from extra memory. It may offer better value than the current Nvidia options, but you should still verify power requirements, card length, and whether your processor will bottleneck it.
